Subject: Re: [RFC/WIP PATCH] object store classification

I thought you are writing different object-store backends and
classifying them into many categories (e.g. local, networked,
telepathic, etc.)

It is a logical next step to put per-repository things into
the_repository.  I skimmed the patch and the changes smelled sane,
but I didn't read it really carefully with fine toothed comb.

Thanks.  The remainder kept for reference, but no additional
comments in there.

This continues the efforts of bw/repo-object, making our code base
more object oriented by adding the object store to the the repository struct.


It's great to see this effort continuing.

Long term goal of the series that would evolve from this discussion:
* Easier to implement submodule features as it can be in the same process.

Short term goal:
* get rid of 'add_submodule_odb' in submodule.c
   When fetching or pushing we need to determine if a submodule needs processing
   by finding out if certain commits are present.  To do this we add the submodule
   objects as an alternate object database and do the processing in the same
   process. In case of multiple submodules, this would pollute the object store
   hence being slower and increasing memory usage, too.

This patch only changes the object store code to be object oriented based
on the repository struct.

To go for the short term goal we'd need to convert a few more places, mostly
all the construction (blob.c, tree.c, commit.c)


For more API/state design purity, I wonder if there should be an object_store structure that is passed to each of the object store APIs instead of passing the repository object. The repository object could then contain an instance of the object_store structure.

That said, I haven't take a close look at all the code in object.c to see if all the data needed can be cleanly abstracted into an object_store structure.

One concern I have is that the global state refactoring effort will just result in all the global state getting moved into a single (global) repository object thus limiting it's usefulness.

I'd also love to see this followed up with additional patches that would remove the back compat macros. Should be a relatively straight forward "search and replace" series of patches. That will eliminate the code readability/maintenance issues that comes along with macros in addition to the APIs themselves.

No additional comments below...

This is marked RFC as I'd want to gather feedback if the approach, presented
in the header files is sound.

Thanks!

   Peff, this area of the code seems performance sensitive for a variety of
   use cases, specifically yours. So I cc'd you here. :)
